My husband has bought me flowers from Three Peas for many, many years and the arrangements and the bouquets last a long time!

I have used both 3 Peas and Beth Anne's. Both are great and offer something unique. Beth Anne makes you feel at home, adds a personal touch and is located right on Main Street in Royersford.

Three Peas in a Pod is an excellent floral and gift shop. They ALWAYS go that extra step to make it beautiful and special. Their arrangements and gifts are always unique. It's the only florist that I have used in the past 15+ years

This was supposed to be a fun thing and now it is turning personal and getting out of hand. It is too bad that people have to spoil Patch's nice idea.

Two comments were deleted from this post for violating Patch Terms of Service. Gail is right. This is supposed to be a fun, light competition to see who our towns' favorite shops are. Unfortunately, some people just don't know how to act their age. I hope grown men and women can make better decisions as we proceed.

It's a shame the INTERNET is not an open FORUM for discussion! I wonder if The Mercury also deletes and edits comments? I was simply stating my opinion on 3 prior visits to Ms Gail's flower shop 3 Peas in a Pod. They are rude and unwelcoming and it's sad that she would follow and take so offensively a simple statement which is very very true. She might remember us, we were there 2 years ago during prom season ans she forced us to pick between 3 different flowers even though we came in to her establishment a week before the event. When we picked up the item it was not at all what we had asked for and wanted and would not fix it for us, I had to drive to the good folks at the Limerick Florist who fixed the item for us and made exactly what we wanted (they were the little roses for god's sake). Since that incident we now go to Beth Ann's or Limerick Florist. My wife and I would never go elsewhere

Bjorn - I'd first like to thank you for further clarifying your original comment. Your current comment is a good explanation as to why you were/are upset with Three Peas in a Pod. However, in your first comment, you DID violate our Terms of Service. We don't do name-calling here. Never have and never will. Thank you in advance for understanding.

We like both the Limerick Florist and BethAnn's. The prices may be just a bit lower at Limerick, but the arrangements at both shops are absolutely lovely. The service is also very friendly at Limerick.

We did have a problem once years ago with a Three Peas arrangement. It was delivered smelling heavily of cigarette smoke. Perhaps the delivery driver back at that time was a smoker. When we called to ask about it they did not apologize and did not offer any floral replacement or price adjustment.

Beth Ann's has amazing service. The ladies always work with me to figure out the best arrangement for my occasion. They make beautiful and unique designs and always think outside of the box. I aways go to Beth to get my girlfriends birthday/valentines flowers. They make every arrangement special and personalized. My girlfriend is always ecstatic when she receives them. That's good enough for me :)

Limerick Florist is my choice only based on their youthful perspective (I'm 32)! It just gives you a more modern feel and the staff is atleast HALF of the age the staff at 3 Peas in a Pod is. When I went in 3 Peas it felt like I was walking in to see my grandma at The Mennonite Community. Beth Anne's is real close and I would say almost tied to Limerick, BIG DOWNSIDE is their actual location. No direct Parking lot which Limerick and 3 Peas have. But for the full package, I'd say visit Limerick.

I just had to comment on this one... I work at Three Peas In a Pod florist. I recently just turned 30. I don't plan on being "grandma" anytime soon !!!!! I think this has to do more with a persons taste than the age of someone. That is why Three florists have survived in this small town. There is something for everyone!

Limerick Florist is my choice! They do the flowers for our dance recital every year! The staff is extremely friendly and giving. 2 years ago we were leaving the recital and were waiting for my husband to pull up as it was rainy. The florist's staff were wrapping things up and my daughter ran to their counter and wanted a stuffed animal real bad, but I did not have any more money, the staff gave the animal to my daughter as a gift and gave her 3 balloons as well! Speaks volumes about their values and genuine care for their customers and specifically the kids they were there for! As I recall, the fellow there ended up giving out the rest of the balloons to all the other kids who were still around!

Three Peas in a Pod did the football card last year and also was a Dancing with the Star sponsor both years as well as making regular contributions to the Basket Bingos at the elemntary Schools. I beleive that BethAnn's does lots to help the band. All three of us do our best to contribute to the community in many ways.

My daughters are the head designers at Limerick and Three peas and I know they are very good at what they do. Therefore, i can't pick a best because I think there is a place for all three. the fact that all three remained in business with the bad economy speaks volumes. Stop in and talk to a Kelsch girl and you will see what I mean, they are very sweet and very talented. My best to ALL three florists!!

I would say for Valentines Day go to Limerick Florist. Great quality and their prices beat all shops that deliver to my town, I'm in Collegeville and I priced about 6 different shops last year. I still go to Beth's when I stop by Sweet Ashley for chocolates but hands down, Limerick Florist gets my vote, great customer service, great flexibility with delivery, feels like they are there for you and are happy to see you, even though I know it's a business just like any other and it may just be their selling technique but it's pretty good nonetheless

We recently had a funeral and I was not familiar with the shops in this area, with the help of the funeral home they recommended Three Peas in a Pod. The young lady who helped us pick out the flowers was great! She made a difficult situation for us easier. The flowers were beautiful!!! I also had flowers delivered at my daughters house from other shops, there was a huge difference in how long they lasted..
So Three Peas has my vote.. Good luck

Limerick Florist or 3 Peas for me. I'd give the edge to Limerick Florist though and voted as such since last time I was in 3 Peas, I think it was for Mother's day, their prices were astronomical. I've never really had a problem with either one of the shop's staff even though I do see an age difference and as my daughter thinks the Limerick Florist has a more modern 'vibe' and are more 'chill' if that means anything to the above posts. I personally could care less, as long as someone takes my order and gets it to where it's supposed go! I wouldn't take offense Ms. Shannon, I'm sure you are a lovely young lady, however, the younger generation, including yourself, sees and does things differently than us folks, I'm in my early 40s and still have trouble adapting to things such as status updates and tweets. I can't recall having a computer at home growing up much less iphones and android phones or high speed internet. The things that were relevant and we all wanted was a pager as I recall when I was graduating high school. How the times have changed! Cheers to all

Rachel it was a little humor to lighten things up in here, I did grow up in the area and I am familiar with all 3. I just always found it quite humorous and did once think it was a produce stand. And also thank you for the spelling correction :)
